Got offer TC 340K, yoe 15. Current TC 280K.

What’s the mood like there? They seems to be working at cloud scale, so no doubt good work there. This was my first interview and have others lined up in the next few weeks. But the money and work (distributed DB) is decent.

Any input from current or past ebay employees?

Thanks!

    • Get any offer from google at level l5, Facebook E5, oracle OCI principal engineer. The list goes on, many many company will pay that much for principal level or even senior

      Simply not true. 450k offer is at the very high end of L5 which you can’t get unless you have a very strong competitive offer, it’s also outside E5 range at FB

    If you’re a high performer, please come on in. We need strong tech talent.

    To be honest, the mood sucks, but that’s because of recent layoffs and politics amongst leadership. In terms of work, there are excellent opportunities and good challenges to work on

      I did a stint at eBay - great wlb balance. But that's about it. Leadership team absolutely sucks. There are more directors and VPs in a relatively small company. Also the engineers are 90% Indian, that's not good.

      It was all downhill after PayPal spin-off. When management tells you StubHub is the new PayPal, the writing is on the wall.
